1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

To investigate the effect of hemodialysis (HD) on cognitive dysfunction in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) using resting-state functional MR imaging (rs-fMRI) with regional homogeneity (ReHo) and functional connectivity algorithms. The rs-fMRI data were acquired in 58 ESRD patients (HD patients, n = 32, 22 male and 10 female, mean age 36.5 ± 9.6 years; non-HD ESRD patients, n = 26, 16 male and 10 female, mean years of 35.6 ± 8.2) and 32 healthy controls (22 male and 10 female, mean years of 32.7 ± 8.8). A battery of neuropsychological and blood laboratory tests were prescribed. The Kendall's coefficient of concordance (KCC) was used to measure ReHo for each subject. The ReHo maps were compared by using ANOVA tests among HD, non-HD, and healthy control groups. Regions showing ReHo differences between HD and non-HD patients were defined as seeds for further functional connectivity analysis. A multiple regression analysis was performed to evaluate the relationships between ReHo index and neuropsychological tests, serum creatinine and urea levels, disease and dialysis duration. Compared with healthy controls, both HD patients and non-HD patients showed decreased ReHo in the multiple areas of bilateral frontal, parietal and temporal lobes. Compared with the non-HD, HD patients showed decreased ReHo mainly in default mode network (DMN) including bilateral precuneus, posterior cingulate cortex, inferior parietal lobe, right postcentral gyrus, bilateral superior temporal gyri, right supramarginal gyrus and right angular gyrus. Some reduced ReHo brain regions correlated with some neuropsychological tests, serum creatinine and urea levels, and dialysis duration. Brain regions with ReHo reduction showed increased region-to-region functional network in HD patients compared with non-HD patients. Widespreadly decreased ReHo values were found in both HD and non-HD patients. Lower ReHo values mainly in the DMN correlated with cognition impairments were observed in HD patients compared with non-HD patients, while increased functional connectivity was found between these brain regions. HD might have an adverse effect on the cognitive function in ESRD patients.
